Perhaps one of the best hookah bars in Istanbul. It's a very instagrammable place if you're sitting on the veranda. Lots of show giveaways. A purely European place on a trendy waterfront. They cook well. There is no alcohol. I recommend

There is nothing else behind the beautiful view from the veranda to the bay, unfortunately:
- the location is excellent! A veranda with a beautiful view, it's a pleasure to enjoy the bay closer to sunset.
- in addition to the veranda, there is a fairly large hall with sofas, but it does not arouse interest, because the main "feature" of this place is the veranda, which offers a beautiful view
- staff - there was a feeling that the institution does not have a manager/ manager who manages the team. In the institution "managerial chaos" - booking a table through the website is not reflected anywhere, apparently, in the institution, because no one looked at our reservation anywhere, there was no free table when we arrived, we had to wait 15 minutes inside the restaurant at first (we made reservations for 6 people on the veranda). After 15 minutes of waiting, we were seated on the veranda at a table for 4 people. When we asked how the six of us would sit here, the staff began to say that they would do everything now. Another 15 minutes passed. Nothing has changed, although several times we asked different restaurant employees to resolve the issue with seats. It was only when the last 2 people arrived and they had nowhere to sit that the staff started fussing and trying to come up with something. As a result, after 5 minutes we were transferred to a table for six.
- menu and food - at first glance it looks quite good - various salads, snacks, hot dishes. But in fact, the food is absolutely tasteless (salad with dry meat, with tasteless / tired greens, as an example). There is no alcohol in the establishment. There are teas, cocktails, and coffee.
- hookah is another hope for which we came to this place - to smoke a hookah with such a view is wonderful, but, alas, these expectations were also not fulfilled - the hookah is clearly here "for a beautiful word." The hookah man (although he speaks Russian) did not ask about the fortress, not about the taste, but simply offered to make us 3 different hookahs ;) We still described what we need, with what taste and what strength. None of us liked hookahs - they were not smoky, obviously not the best tobacco used in the institution, it rather tasted tasteless ... in general, another disappointment.
It is a shame that, having such a successful location, the institution does not offer a high-quality service either for hookah or for the kitchen.
We will definitely not go to this place anymore.

The view is super! Hookah is also very good! Cocktails are a bomb! Very friendly staff. Thanks to Daria Khanim, I put her in the most beautiful place!(far left corner))
